2010. We (Sarah and Jeremy) recently left Amsterdam and relocated to Sicily, Italy. We are working on organic farms and travelling. This internet page, which we plan on updating periodically, chronicles some of the things we like, mainly, colours, food and things that involve the sun.

Mastering Miso. Palazzoulo

1000 km from Sicily and it’s getting a bit chilly. We spent most of September in Tuscany on a farm helping a fermentation expert make miso, sauces like tamari and soy, wine and grape juice. Jeremy was pivotal in the construction of a new luxury eco-lodge for the barrels of fermenting sauces which have to kept under strict climate control. The month with Kheo, Dario (farm host/miso master), Alberto and Barbara (fellow wwoofers) was lots of fun.

Lentils fermenting. The final product is like soy sauce.

We sold wares from the farm at an organic produce market in the centre of Perugia.
